Episode 8 – Patient Patience

April 29, 2020 Johanna Hartelius You're Not Accepted Comments Off on Episode 8 – Patient Patience

Johanna and the boys sat down to talk about ‘Practicing Patience: How Christians Should Be Sick,’ co-authored by Stanley Hauerwas and Charles Pinches. The essay was originally published in Christian Bioethics (1996, Vol. 2, No.2,).

During COVID-19 all of us have had to practice patience and while maybe not being a patient. Throughout the conversation, the crew explores, as the authors put it, “our ability to take the time to enjoy God’s world, when we are well as when we are sick, depends on our recognition that it is indeed God’s world.”
